SUMMARY
I'm using krita 5.1 on windows and playing around with the smart patch. It works (kinda) as intended, but a side effect is that sometimes the area it replaces is a bit blurry and I can't remove it very effectively be it with krita itself or GIMP or whatever. Why does this do this? Is this supposed to happen? Playing around with the tool settings doesn't seem to make a reliable way to know what's happening. 


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open any image in krita 5.1
2. Use the smart patch tool to remove something
3. See what happens

OBSERVED RESULT
Sometimes (and it's unpredictable when this happens) is that the smart patch tool makes it blurry. Sometimes a bit blurry and sometimes very blurry. It's hard to predict what the smart tool will do next upon using it.

EXPECTED RESULT
I expected it to replace the selection with stuff that is around it to make the background look like nothing was covering it to begin with and not be blurry.

To fix this, it would require an algorithm rewrite, so I'm marking this as a wish.
